Live Hummingbird Nest Cam – Oceanside, CA
Your watching a live broadcast of wild female hummingbirds nesting.
There are several Hummers that nest in this yard. Their nests are usually located bushes and no larger than the size of a golf ball. The nest is made from feathers, leaves and other parts of plant matter. She then wraps this material together with spider webs. The eggs she lays are about the size of a breath mint(tic-tac). Hummingbirds lay 1 or 2 eggs per clutch. You can expect to see them hatch after about 14-16 days from the date they are laid. The chicks will continue to grow in the nest for about three to four weeks before fledging. More information about the cams, set-up or to make a donation please visit alyssasnaturesanctuary.org.


Howdy-do BellaFam 🎄 Got up late; only had about an hour to get everything done before leaving; didn’t have time to stop in and say Hi. Got home around 2.30/MST; put away the perishables, plopped into the recliner and promptly fell asleep. Long day; had fried catfish, okra and mac/cheese; such a great time with Kitty. She was kinda like one of those wind-up dolls with a big key; she just kept talking and talking and talking 😄 Neither Chuck nor I had to contribute much other than an occasional Wow, or Oh yeah? She’ll start replaying the day in… Read more »
Hi Pam, glad to see you are safely home. In real time you got home 30 minutes before me. We got home about 4 CT. My, you really ate southern! As in Kentucky, TN, Alabama, Georgia, etc. Kitty hadn’t seen y’all in a long time, she was all geared up and cramming it in. I’m sure she was excited to see you.
Hi Debbie, i was reading chat; you had a nice day at Wally-world 🤗
When i go southern, i go southern 😋 Kitty was sick for so long, 28 days trying to recover from e-coli and she’s starting to feel like herself as well as feel hungry.
Didn’t know Kitty had e-coli. Did she know the source?
I don’t think she was ever able to narrow it down.
Oh no! e-coli. I bet she felt miserable. I hope she recovers completely soon. I’ve heard that stuff is awful. 🙏
It’s been about 10 days since the 2nd dr appt/2nd round of meds to clear it up; she’s still being very careful. She had b-fast food at cracker barrel today.
A slow and careful recovery. It must have really drained her. 😥
Oh I didn’t realize she was still fighting it.
Prayers for your friend or cat? to feel better. 🙏🏻 E-coli is not pleasant.
Thanks Lin; Kitty’s my sister
😁😂. The toon. That isn’t Michi. She would have been a better star. She wouldn’t have to act. 😁
😅
🤣
Okay, clearly I have catching up to do – Kitty is a cat right? We all know cats can be quite vocal and communicative) Or is Kitty a human?
Were you on a trip?
Kitty is my sister’s name 😂😂
We live 2 hours apart so we meet in the middle; city called Pueblo
Oh dear. Sending prayers Pam. Is she is the hospital? Hopefully it was caught early.
Hello and Merry Merry. Tis almost 5 and I’ve just had a wee supper of tuna casserole leftover from yesterday’s deli purchase from our local Co-op. Sometimes I just don’t feel like cooking🙂 My plans for tonight are to address mail and other paperwork, do a load of laundry and a few other boring tasks. I mailed Christmas cards. Hope everyone is having a good day.
Lookie who is here and earlier too! Herrrree’s Lin! Yum on the tuna casserole, I wish I had that! Sounds like you plan to be productive. I plan to be a couch potato other than feeding my and Casey’s mouth. I might muster the effort to wash dishes.
i’m trying to get on more🙂 Couch potatoing sound wonderful! Any TV shows you like that come on tonight or do you have a book to snuggle up with?
We always have stuff on tape to watch and as you probably surmises I’m here a lot. Blabbermouth you know.
Good news you are trying to get on more. My blabbermouth will be more blabbering.
Blabber on KY. Always enjoyed😄
😂😍
I meant to mention your tuna casserole, Lin. One of my favorites, but one I usually forget about for some reason.
I didn’t make this one. was at local Co-op looking for a certain homeopathic and passing their deli bar I saw they had the tuna casserole. I do love making it too when I have the energy. Do you add any herbs or spice to yours? i love tarragon with tuna.
I add tarragon also. One of my favorite spices. Salt, pepper, a tiny bit of garlic, and sometimes smoked paprika.
This is a late response…sorry. Still trying to catch up with messages. I had 67! Half were Likes so I just cleared those. Whew! Do you grow any herbs in your garden? I’m sad that many herbs that were perennial in other states I’ve lived are only annuals here such as Tarragon, Rosemary, I store grown herbs in mason jars and seriously – they keep their flavor for years!! I them air tight in a dark cabinet away from heat. So I still have tarragon from two years ago.
I’m back. Spent nearly 2 hours in Walmart! We just went there and back. It is 41 outside but the store was cold, I am just now starting to warm up. Everything is relative folks. I was buzzing around on a shopping scooter and there was a handicapped lady pushing a regular cart. I guess her hands are messed up more than her legs. She asked me if I could pick up some Downy fabric softener from the bottom shelf. I thought to myself this is a switch. I picked it up with ease and asked if she wanted me… Read more »
41 you say? A heat wave!!! I’m jealous…lol. Though I can share our frigid temps are easing for a few days. At 34, we are having our own heat wave! I loved your Walmart story. You were so sweet (which doesn’t surprise me at all) to help and what a lovely moment to remind you of how much your body can do. Amen to counting blessings. I can’t imagine a life without Gratitude.
I wasn’t sweet, who wouldn’t do that? Well, I can think maybe one person. I wish I had put it in her basket but she was between it and me.
We both know there are many a…holes who wouldn’t so take the praise girlfriend🙂 You ARE sweet….deal with it😘🥰
Guess who sent me a second Christmas card?! Love the Peanut characters.🙂
You are kidding me!?
Regarding the first part of message…yes….teasing you. Second part…yep, two cards. Was that a brain infarct or am I truly that special…ha ha😄 Both cards had the Peanut characters but different. I love it!
That means you were one of the first then I ran out of cards and ordered more, including another box of Peanuts.
I love I got two! Most folk send me e-cards. I love getting them in the mail!
Good afternoon..the restaurant we were going to was closed so went to a different one…got gourmet grilled cheese and potato soup..Dh got a rueben. Doing this and that today..
Love all three of those. What was your gourmet grilled cheese like?
two kinds of special cheeses, can’t remember what they are…grilled tomato and onion and some kind of special bread..and their soup is really good.
That is good!
Sounds delicious to me.
Ruebens!! One of my favorites but no sauerkraut! NO NO NO, YUCK YUCK YUCK!
Are you sure? 😂🤣
Well let me ponder that briefly…uh, NO NO NO😛🤪😛 Don’t get me started on Brussel sprouts, okra, turnips, liver……shuddering…..
Yikes! 🤣 . . . Liver and onions. …
All my favorites! I promise not to serve any of them if you visit. 😄 What are your favs?
I’m heading out see you later
You left just about the same time as me.
we might go out for an early lunch, nearby little restaurant…Debbie, I don’t wrap many at all…all those little odds and ends I just put in the bags..I’ll just wrap the ones for my sister…two books, a dvd, calendar (which won’t fit in the bag but the others will)..we have to do that for my DB’s house, or there would be a million little gifts all over..and harder to transport there too. so a gift bag for each person (except for one who says do not buy any) and I do have some treats for DS to put in a… Read more »
Sounds good to me.
Gift bag is the way to go Lynn😘
